If you experience some strange GUI problems, please remove the leading #

#export SWT_GTK3=0
in smartgit.sh or try to switch to Adwaita theme.
Right now I've got an answer from a user:
I'm not switching my entire desktop theme for one uncooperative
application. And I don't particularly want to disable GTK 3
altogether. Why
can't this just... work?
This is the typical answer from a user and he actually is right.
If there is a concrete bug you should file a ticket with the theme
maintainer. Since they wrote the theme it should be easy for them to fix
(or at least identify) such issues as it's usually a case of padding or
margin being applied in the wrong area.
As Mickael pointed out from a support POV nothing is changing, we are
simply codifying what has already been our position for quite some time.
